Yeah, people (especially conspiracy theorists) have this idea that governments are some kind of mythical all-powerful organization, when really it's just a bunch of normal people that said, "I want to be in charge," and everyone else said, "Sure, okay, whatever. As long as I don't have to do anything."

Girl I dated once said that the Bermuda Triangle is where Atlantis is, but the government doesn't want us to find it so they kill us for entering it. She also said that the pyramids were designed to transport us to other worlds. We screwed up their designs so now we're cursed with global warming
